Three's a Crowd Audio Derped on iTunes!

From the various reports we are getting, it sounds like the audio in Three's a Crowd is once again derped on iTunes.  While not a serious as the previous rendition, It's still noticeable, and obnoxious. (It's set to monaural as opposed to stereo according to the initial submitter Daniel).  Hopefully they get a new one rolled out soon!

London Toy Faire MLP Toy Slideshow

For all of us who happen to live thousands of miles away from London, or anyone else that couldn't attend, someone over on Youtube going by the name of Skylark24 has recorded a slideshow of all the pony merchandise.   Most of it we have seen already (including the boatloads of upcoming plushies), or at least heard about.

Vocal Music: Better Than You (Diamond Tiara's Song) / The Joy of Waiting

We don't get a lot of Diamond Tiara music here on EQD.  This definitely doesn't make me like her any more though.  This pony has been on my awful pony list since the episode earlier in the season. Anyway, get a rock song dedicated to the worst pony! FUEL THE HATRED. JOIN THE DARK SIDE.

And in slot number two, cool off a bit with some soft Cutie Mark Crusaders dedicated acoustic from Joaftheloaf. Which one will you choose?! Get both below.

Comic: If Only For A Night

Watching comics grow since the early times of the fandom has been a great pleasure. Back when Madmax was our primary comic artist and comic posts weren't even a thing we have grown to having several well known comic artists as well as several comic posts a day at times. Evolving from simple jokes to huge multipart stories has been amazing and is something I love about this fandom.

This comic exemplifies that evolving trend, with beautiful artwork, multiple panels, and even some animated scenes as well! Check out this latest piece by Rizcifra and be blown away by clicking above!

Warning: Hasbro.com Hacked According to Barracuda Labs and Help Net Security

A couple of security focused websites have reported on the potential hacking of Hasbro.com.  Apparently this has been going on for a while now, with major hits on the 20th, 14th, 11th, and 10th.  The hack involved a chain of re-directs that eventually lead to a place that downloaded a malicious trojan that can potentially steal information from an unprotected computer.

Full articles can be found over on Barracuda Labs and Help Net Security.  I'd highly recommend scanning your machines and making sure they are completely clean.  According to Help Net, this list should be a good place to start on what can take out the virus. 

Michael Morones Recovery Fund

We here at EqD have received sad news today. Michael Morones, an 11 year old boy in North Carolina, recently attempted to take his own life due to bullying received on account of being a brony. Fortunately, the attempt was caught and halted in time to save his life, but he sustained severe brain damage. The family has reached out and is asking if the community from the show he loves can help out with the medical expenses.

His facebook page can be found here, and money can be donated over on Paypal via this address: [email protected]

Everyone here at Equestria Daily offers our deepest condolences to the family of Michael and wishes him a complete and speedy recovery.

Note for those wondering: We have received confirmation. The story and donation link is legitimate.
